We're at the halfway point with this issue — in time
elapsed, if not in money collected. On May 3, we had
exactly $18,000 turned in — still $2,000 away from the
halfway point of $20,000. ¢

If you have not sent in your donation, if your club is
lagging behind, do something about it now. Step up the
drive to reach our $40,000 and go over.

__ Remember, the second half of our drive will pass by
just as quickly as the first half. The only difference is
that our drive will have to keep pace.

‘Stop rush to oblivion’

“T left the University of York
even more convinced that the
working people all over the world
must wake up to the perils facing
them, and must convince their
governments, regardless. of
political persuasion, to meet, with
a serious view to starting out on the
road back to sanity.”

This was the view expressed by
Vancouver Labor Council
secretary Paddy Neale in a report
on the disarmament conference
held recently in York, England.
The report was included in the
minutes of the Vancouver Labor
Council, sent out to affiliated locals
recently.

Neale was one of four delegates
from B.C. to attend the parley
along with 16 others from Canadian
centres. The B.C. delegates were
Neale; Rev. Robert Burrows of the
United Church; Dr. James Foulks,
University of B.C.; and Ben
Metcalfe, freelance broadcaster
and journalist.

The four B.C. delegates will
address a public report-back
meeting on Monday, May 10 at 8
p.m. at the First United Church,
Gore and Hastings St.

Neale said the parley was at-
tended by 350 delegates, 85 of

countries, with Japan being repre-
sented by delegates from
Hiroshima and Nagasaki, in-
cluding some who were survivors
of the A-bomb attacks. Delegates
also attended from France, Soviet
Union, United States and Sweden,
although some delegates from
world peace organizations were
denied visas by the British
government.

Neale said in his report that a
highlight for him were two

came from different

speeches made by Philip Noel
Baker, who was the British repre-
sentative to the original League of
Nations. In his speeches Noel-
Baker warned of the threat of a
nuclear holocaust if there is not an
immediate start made toward
world disarmament, and the
cessation of the proliferation of
nuclear capability.

He also warned of the worsening
economic problems if the world
continues to spend a billion dollars
a day on arms, instead of using the
money, the labor, and especially,
the natural resources, for the
betterment of mankind. .

“There is no better place to start
than here in Canada where we
waste over three billion dollars per
year on military spending (out of a
total budget of a little over 30
billion dollars,” said Neale, ‘“‘and
where we are not really faced with
a military threat from any country
in the world.”

Neale concludes his report by
saying, “I hope that, by adding my
voice, again and again, to this
drive for world disarmament, I
will be able to play a small part in
stopping, what I believe to be, a
headlong rush into oblivion.”
